Spirituality

And the Spirit of the Lord shall rest upon him: the spirit of wisdom, and of understanding, the spirit of counsel, and of fortitude, the spirit of knowledge, and of godliness. And he shall be filled with the Spirit of the fear of the Lord. (Isaiah 11:2-3)

You must keep to what you have been taught and know to be true; remember who your teachers were, and how, ever since you were a child, you have known the Holy Scriptures – from these you can learn the wisdom that leads to salvation through faith in Christ Jesus. All Scripture, inspired of God, is profitable to teach, to reprove, to correct, to instruct in justice, that the man of God may be perfect, furnished to every good work. (2Timothy 3:14-17)

Every religious congregation in the Church has a spirit all of its own; it is inspired by the Spirit of God to respond to the needs of the Church to work for the salvation of souls. (Saint Eugene of Mazenod)

Our spirituality is centred on:

Zeal for the Scriptures (Matthew 22:29)

Devotion to the Crucified Christ (1Corinthians 2:2)

Total reliance on the grace of God (1Corinthians 15:10)

Leading holy lives uncontaminated by the world (1Peter 1:15-16; James 1:27)

Remaining humble under all circumstances (Sirach 3:18, John 3:30)

Total faithfulness to God (Revelations 17:14)

Our founder imparted to us a deep love for the Catholic Church and her teachings, and an inspiration to follow the example of the Saints (1John 2:6). He encouraged us to remain in the Faith of the Apostle Peter (Matthew 16:16), the Wisdom of the Apostle Paul (Romans 11:33-35), and the Revelation born of Divine Love of the Apostle John (John 1:1-18). We believe in the Lord Jesus Christ as the Son of God, in Whom is contained all fullness of wisdom and knowledge (Colossians 2:2-3; 1Corinthians 1:24) and that we are called to have a blind and total faith in His Word. (Luke 1:45)
